WA council librarian Declan Mansfield has some talent as a writer and has been contributing to the Spectator Australia magazine for some years.
Spectator contributors are generally of a conservative or libertarian leaning so when his employer the City of Armadale in Perth, WA, asked him to take part in a DEI (diversity, equity, inclusion) training course. Declan politely declined, being well aware of the ideological agenda behind such indoctrination.
After his manager and other staff convinced him there was no ideology behind the DEI training, Declan agreed to take part. His experience prompted an article for The Spectator – without referencing the particular location.
“After doing the training session and realising that it was completely ideological, I wrote an article within The Spectator Australia,” he told Sky News. The DEI training lasted for three hours and was “a perfect example of propaganda”, he said.
The article claims that while the ostensible purpose of the training session was to “demarcate the line between acceptable and unacceptable behaviour in the workplace”, it contained exercises that resembled the struggle sessions used by communist regimes for enforce obedience to the state.
Mr Mansfield said he did not tell anyone at work about the article, but some colleagues found out about it on Facebook, which led to a change in the way he was treated by some coworkers and members of the library management.
The former librarian said while most staff at the library were apolitical, there was a small group within the library who were “zealous for introducing this ideology” and “completely indifferent to the harm they could cause people.”
Declan said there were posters all over the library, lanyards with messages, relentless emails and training sessions. “I don’t care what somebody’s sexuality is, what they identify as, what their beliefs are, that’s none of my business.
“But I believe that government institutions, local government in particular, need to be politically and philosophically neutral; diversity, equity and inclusion and its subcategory, you could say, of transgender ideology or gender ideology, is not politically neutral.”
The corporate managers of councils across Australia are, of course, too cravenly compliant to speak up against legislative demands for ideological indoctrination. Many would not even recognise it as such: “Oh, it’s the directives for corporate management that the Local Government Department gives us,” would be the typical justification.
As for the elected councillors, they have no say in such matters, because they too live in a straitjacket of rules laid down by state local government Acts.
Declan’s case for unlawful discrimination is now headed to the WA State Administrative Tribunal, where the council will be accused of running an “ideological vendetta” against a former library employee who spoke out against diversity, equity and inclusion training.
Mansfield says he was discriminated against, basically because of his political beliefs, which contravenes the Equal Opportunity Act 1984.
Whilst a Constitutional issue might not get up in the Fair Work Commission it is nonetheless fair to comment that this sort of woke indoctrination is Constitutionally unlawful as no Head of Power exists in this country’s Constitution, which is the much-touted Law of the Land.
One could even say that the Rainbow Library Toolkit Gay Storytime effort is an example of trespass on the innocent minds of youngsters who do not have the maturity to process that sort of information.
This sort of indoctrination, which cannot be unremembered, might also come under Konrad Lorenz’s theory of psychological imprinting:

And I bet the Wokeists know that.
Most of the bogans in Armadale are probably illiterate so they should shut the entire library down

24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them
“censorship” and a violation of free speech and free press.
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting
pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures,
radio, and TV.
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as
“normal, natural, healthy.”

Sam said – “… BS BS BS… cis white… BS BS BS…”
Yay! Go the Trolls, folks!
A thriving new small change industry for anyone with an empty wallet, a conscience for sale, rapacious indifference and a pocket full of dreams.
Hey, it’s what I heard.
Those Australians who identified as “Other” than “Male” or “Female” in the 2021 Census, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics made up about two percent of the Australian population.
With changes to the 2026 Census, Australians will now be able to select “Male”, “Female” or “Another term” as their sex recorded at birth.
If they select “Another term” and are aged sixteen years or over they can report their current gender in a separate question on gender.”
‘“A person’s sex recorded at birth refers to what was determined by sex characteristics observed at birth or infancy.”
“Responses to the sex recorded at birth and gender questions are used to produce trans and gender diverse data.”
“The Census does not collect data on innate variations of sex characteristics……”’ — A.B.of S.
I wish Declan Mansfield all the best at the reeducation camp.
Hopefully the punishment for dissenting opinion determined by woke minority judgement, is not a choice between drawn out subincision or twenty lashes of the cat.
Female genital mutilation and cutting, is a crime in Australia, with a penalty of twenty one years imprisonment.
Disturbingly genital mutilation and cutting of mentally and physically immature young males in Australia is not afforded equal human rights.
Woke laws are owned by the minority; do not deliver on diversity, equality and the inclusion they profess, they give security to the few whilst destroying freedoms of the majority.
Sorry, that’s supposed to read “one’s assigned birth GENDER”, not “AGENDA”
Creepy spell-check indeed !
transphobic – understanding that one’s assigned birth agenda can’t be swapped out, or written off
racist – having cultural preferences
ableist – being realistic about personal limitations
sexist – acknowledging the inherit weaknesses and strengths of both sexes
homophobic – acknowledging the difference between same sex & opposite sex partnerships
Welcome to the Tranny Apocalypse 🏳️🌈
This council is a Disgusting Disgrace. People should be losing their jobs. This Man has done nothing wrong what so ever. I would do the same thing. This WOKE GARBAGE has got to stop.
The Law is a fashion industry
When the Roman Legions entered Gaul, they were aghast to discover how many of the men were really into each other. I think it was Julius Caesar’s, The Gallic Wars, which commented on how pretty the French girls were, but the men were not interested in them.
These degenerate white males are nothing new. They’re simply terrified of women. When Christianity was introduced, they were forced to adapt. So these women averse male virgins, instantly installed a virgin cult: worshipping the Virgin Mary and her Virgin son. With the emergence of the current environment they are simply re-adapting true to type.
For at least a decade, libraries have been actively employed as the centre-point for the dissemination of this degenerative progressive ideology. These institutes are reliant upon funding, so they do what they’re told. In fact, they will openly admit they are no longer libraries, but ‘community centres’ – with a book area.
This progressive ideology originates within the weak effeminate minds of academia, where once again, if they refuse to grovel to the ideology, they don’t get funding.
When discussing the recent schism in the Anglican Church, hence, resulting with the complete breakaway of the African branch of the Anglican faith, it was rightly pointed out, that the modern Anglican Church has been usurped by a progressive political ideology hiding behind a Christian veneer.
”Their [Anglican Church] ideology, which is primarily about a modern set of political beliefs they dress in Christian rhetoric rather than about actual Christian belief.”

So the legitimate authority of the Anglican Church has just passed to the African Anglican Church. Whereas the English Church has become the false church: the imposter church.
So well done Africa, at least they’re standing up to this Eurotrash degeneracy.
He worked for government, he voted for it, he deserved to be discriminate against. Go cry somewhere else you cis white bigot.
1 Corinthians 6:9
“Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,”
DEI is worldly pressure to accept immorality.
There can only be one true authority and that is the Father of all creation –
Paul the apostle to the Romans – Romans 13:1-2
A translation of my Greek interlinear provided this –
“Every soul to authorities higher be subject to. For there is no authority if not from god, but the existing authorities under Me having been ordained (by me) are. So the one resisting the authority of his God has opposed and those having opposed to themselves judgement will receive.”
Luke 11:28 – But he said, Yea rather, blessed [are] they that hear the word of God, and keep it. Acts 5:29 – Then Peter and the [other] apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.
“…….Romans 13 is in play until the government, ruling class, authority over you, whatever you want to call it, decides that it is the final arbiter and sets itself up in the position reserved for God alone. When the state or the government moves to exclude God and to erect itself in that position, a Christian has an obligation before God to expose and resist evil.
Eph 5.11 have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. even if it means that resistance has consequences from those who assume power that you are resisting…………”
Genesis 1:1 is the beginning of Scripture and the foundation for all other revelation. It all begins with the statement that God is the Creator. This establishes not only His sovereignty but His right of ownership as the Creator. He has the right to do with His creation as He pleases. No other being has the right to tell Him what to do or to revise His plan according to his will.
Those who make such claims are trying to be gods in themselves, because they usurp the Creator’s right of ownership. However, God asserts that in reality “there is none else.” In fact, there can be only one sovereign God in the universe. All others have authority, which is delegated to lesser beings and which is to be used to further the will of the Sovereign.
Authority is never more powerful than the Sovereign Master who authorised it. Jesus said, “A slave is not greater than his master” (John 13:16).
